Our Constitution was excreted in 1876, right after the state was "redeemed" by God fearin' white folk from all those evil carpetbaggers and negroes, and has been amended 300 times since, making it either the first or second longest constitution in the nation. We still have a state fund for Confederate widows (the last one died 50 years ago), creating a hospital district requires a statewide vote, and the governor still retains the power to call out the militia in the even of an Indian uprising.The Local Crankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16673363936902590966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8983386.post-73547107034623372212007-09-28T16:53:00.000-05:002007-09-28T16:53:00.000-05:00Back atcha, truth-pain!Back atcha, truth-pain!Fran / Blue Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18293627981248346055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8983386.post-39335800582345594722007-09-28T15:54:00.000-05:002007-09-28T15:54:00.000-05:00...

Although I am libertarian for the most part and of diverging views to most of your commenters, I try to drink other-flavored kool-aid from time to time. With your blessing I am including you in my "other bullhorns" section.

Interesting fact: until the 1960s, Alabama history textbooks dutifully listed every amendment. They stopping doing so when merely listing all of them could fill up a textbook by itself.<BR/><BR/>Naturally, state politicians will use the old scare tactics of raising taxes and people will fall for it hook, line, and sinker like always. In reality, they don't want to risk losing their power and losing all the private concessions they've skillfully written into the document. <BR/><BR/>This is why I sometimes wish Montgomery could be burned to the ground.
